2024 January transfer window - hopes, needs, expectations and rumours.

[Clampy]

I don't have a problem with it. They obviously like what they've seen of him and think he's someone that they can work on. Nothing to lose really.

[Gareth]

Like Louis Barry, Irogbenum etc I’d guess they are players Harrison would have been monitoring and pushing to Monchi etc.

[Toronto Villa]

Can’t say I noticed him stand out when we played them a few weeks ago, but then I don’t really watch the opposition.

Me either. I trust Monchi and Emery, but it seems a bit weird to be getting rid of players like Archer and Philogene, then signing what appears to be a like for like replacement

Also seems a bit odd that we move heaven and earth to bring in Monchi, his brilliant scouting network and his big book of global contacts and he finds us a guy from West Brom's academy.

Fine if it happens, presumably it's for a good reason. But at the same stage of his time at Sevilla he was finding Dani Alves in Brazil.

I'd say it's more what we can do now vs the summer. I'd expect us to have much more freedom on players (FFP all considered of course) to bring players in then. The January window isn't exactly buzzing right now with all the restrictions coupled with ludicrous prices.

Boro fans reaction. Some very interesting comments. It's certainly taken them by surprise.

Arguably biggest club in the Midlands ?? argue with whom ?

Middlesbrough reject Aston Villa bid for Morgan Rogers

It's not known how how much Villa's offer for the attacker was but sources have told the Northern Echo that the bid was "rejected out of hand".

We should not look to pay more than £6m

[Percy McCarthy]

Could it possibly be Mrs Sexual Ealing perchance?

Didn’t someone call her a prostitute in the comments section of a Plymouth newspaper?
